I'm Nanna - with two 'n's.
I like my full title, grandma.
I've heard of grandads called Poppy, which I like.
Don't grandparents tend to be called by the same name as their parents were? My mum is Granny to her grandchildren, as was her mum. When (if?) I get there, I want to be Granny, not Nanny or any variation of it.
I,m granny but my grandson can,t say that he calls me gog gog .
I'm granny, but they have quite a few, due to the great grans refusing to be called great gran, so we then get our dogs name added.
Granny daisy,
Granny poppy
Granny Lucy
And me granny Taz . ( note to self, pick a better dog name next time)
The kids decided not me.
Hubby is papa.
You are all very lucky people.
Apparently I am to be called Granan to our Great Grandchild..so'ok by me.

My husband will be Grandad.

Grandsons father is to be called Grumps. Suits him lol.
My BIL now glories in the name of "Gumpy" - seems it's a family thing. :)
Nope, nor will I will be.

Daisy Nonna and Granny Grimbo
When our first grandchild was born, my wife declared she would be known as "badly behaved Granny" thereby claiming Granny rights with extras. The child now calls his other grandmother 'Grandma', with which that lady is happy, having eschewed "well behaved Granny" as an option.
Didn't realise I had posted last night and again tonight. Sorry.
I'm just Pa to my grandchildren. The oldest one couldn't say grandpa, shortened it to Pa, and has been thus ever since.

I like it too!
We are nana and bampy.
We lived in France when our first grandson arrived so we were Nanny and Grandad France - been back in the UK for 5 years and are still Nanny & Grandad France! Even his school teacher calls me Nanny France!
I'm Gwamma.
I'm Nain (pronounced Nine), and my husband is Taid (pronounced Tide). We're Welsh and these are the Welsh words for granny and grandpa.
I'm Mamgu as i'm Welsh, my husband is Grandad as he's Yorkshire and not entitled to be Tadcu.


i am proud to be a god-father
